Who will be the next breakout player?
Only 4 months and a few days until Opening Day. Who do you think will be the next young player to have a breakout season?
These come to mind for me, but there are so many other possibilities:
Victor Robles
Luis Robert
Alex Kirilloff
Eloy Jimenez
I would love to see my Twins bring up Alex and give him a shot at the big time. Luis Arraez was a pleasant surprise so why not?!

Mike Trout.....as a Pitcher! LOL!!
Im going to go with Adley Rutschman actually. I think he'll be a quick call up for a team that needs a "face of the franchise".

I would be fine with that to increase my auto value for a later trade or sale!

Dylan Carlson. Should get called up early based on his performance last year. Luis Robert likewise.

I do believe will be Luis Robert. He will get a chance early in the season and had a great 2019 season in AA and AAA.

The Tigers starting rotation, circa late 2020/early 2021.
They've been picking pitchers in the first round for about five years now, LOL.

Since 2008, the Twins have drafted 6 pitchers in the 1st round that are not currently on the team at any level.

So, both teams are inept at getting pitchers thru the franchise to help the team!
